ESAD Annual Catalogue Blog Hop







Today I am blog hopping with the ESAD team and the theme is Annual Catalogue. Having so many new items to play with is exciting but it does make the decision a little tricky too! I couldn't decide! 

I ended up choosing the Forever Fern stamp set. I have been playing with this set a lot but I wanted to experiment with other colours too. Last week I participated in a team blog hop and we had a colour challenge - rich razzleberry, gorgeous grape and daffodil delight. These are not colours that I would usually put together and I was keen to see what my team could create. 

Well my team member Kylie Page blew it out of the park! She created this Joseph's Coat technique card and I just KNEW I had to recreate it! 

As I still had the colours on my desk I used the same colours and I love the end result. 

Now Kylie even made a video of how she created this card and has graciously let me share it with you. So if you haven't tried this please do - it's lots of fun and the result are amazing.  







I do hope you give it a try and experiment with other colours too. 

Next on the hop is the amazing Kelly Kent - make sure you check out her blog and all the others for some fantastic inspiration.
